Bad romance

A new study ranking the states where couples are least happy in their marriages puts Tennessee and Georgia at the top of the list. The study for national law firm Schmidt & Clark analyzed more than 300,000 Google searches for divorce and related terms and found that Tennessee residents are looking for official separation the most, averaging 141 searches per 100,000 residents, which is 40% more than the average American. Georgia follows, with 134 searches per 100,000 residents. The states with the happiest marriages this Valentine’s Day, according to the search parameters, are Alaska, South Dakota and Hawaii.
